I'm not so sure

Apparently there's a beauty contest coming up in Amsterdam. The two winners will be the podium girls at the end of the first stage of the Giro this year. OK, that's all well and good so far. But several entrants are gay men, bringing up the possibility of podium guys kissing the winner. Amsterdam has a large gay population as it is a very tolerant city, and the Green Left party is fully supportive of the idea of podium guys.

Me? Not so much. I'm a retro-grouch. Podium girls should be, well, girls. Bike frames should be steel. Saddles should be leather.
